Allocating a Charge card payments

Our company has a company charge card that gets used for all no account payments

This card is used through out the month then we have a DD for the total amount that comes out each month.

Now it not just materials that we put on the card we have stuff like Fuel and Stationary so on my old (Excel) system i would allocate the amounts to each nominal account

How do i go about allocating parts of this total to different nominal accounts. without creating a purchase for each item on the statement? ( i can’t get the statements electronically)

Cheers in advance

Any sort of charge card or credit card is treated like a bank account in QuickFile. There’s actually a category in the bank management area specifically for credit cards. Payments made on the card are logged as “money out” entries on the statement,you can then tag these expenses as purchase invoices or post directly to a nominal code using the tagging option “Something else not on the list”.

When the DD clears the card balance you would treat this as a bank transfer from your current account to the card account.

Okay i understand that

but unlike a normal credit card we don’t have a balance like a normal card it just resets to Zero each month

For augments sake say i have £1000 Gone through as a DD

£300 was fuel
£500 was material
£200 was postage

how do i split them over the nominal accounts ? as i am just trying to avoid having to go through the card statement an create a purchase for each item

If you want to do it that way without having a separate bank account then you’d need to enter it as a journal, something like this would work.

If you’re VAT registered you should however manage it via a separate credit card bank account and tag to invoices in order to itemise the VAT.

Okay thanks for your help
